The Toronto Raptors are set to kick off the upcoming NBA season at their home court for the 14th time in the last 15 years. The NBA recently unveiled the complete schedule for the 2026-27 season, with the Raptors scheduled to face off against the Chicago Bulls at Scotiabank Arena on October 21. Following their home opener, the Raptors will hit the road for a game against the Washington Wizards just two days later.
Among the notable matchups on the Raptors’ home turf are consecutive games against the reigning champions, the New York Knicks, on November 15 and 17. Additionally, fans can look forward to a showdown with Victor Wembanyama’s San Antonio Spurs on December 10 and a visit from Canadian standout Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Oklahoma City Thunder on March 10.
January is slated to be the busiest month for the Raptors, with a total of 17 games, including a six-game stretch at home. The team will also face a challenging schedule with 15 back-to-back games this season, seven of which require no travel.
While the schedule for 80 of the Raptors’ 82 games has been confirmed, two games are yet to be scheduled following the conclusion of the in-season NBA Cup tournament group play. Despite their strong presence in the league, the Raptors will not be featured in the coveted Christmas Day lineup this year. The last time the Raptors played on December 25 was in 2019, when they were the defending NBA champions.
